Yu-Gi-Oh! 3D Bonds Beyond Time

[pharaohyami5000]

Oh, for the love of... ugh! This has got to be my most biggest derp ever.

[DarkDust_Dragon]

To be honest I have the feeling that the 3 of them don't always hold cards during the entire movie when they should hold. And that's probably because holding cards will restrain Kagami's GORGEOUS HANDS from their incredibly graceful movements.

So I've seen. Paradox's third turn gave that away.

But at the end of the turn, the only one that got cards left was Yugi, so Judai and Yuusei didn't have to had cards on their hands after that.

You mean Yusei had a card, since he had the lat turn and everybody used up their hand on their turn.

Because in the UK we don't **** around.

I am adding this to my Sig right now.

Oh, for the love of... ugh! This has got to be my most biggest derp ever.

As for why it was animated that way... honestly, I think it was just so watch Paradox's attack turn back against him, because if Stardust wrapped around it like in Episode 24, it wouldn't have been as cool. The Needle storm was just awesome.

I know. It's been so long since I've seen card effects turn back against themselves. It looked to me Sin Paradox Dragon's own needle storm was reflected back. I can't believe I forgot Stardust's effect that also destroys the card.

[YamiMario]

I reworked my soundtrack, fixing most loops and end points the best I could, removing more leftovers of the original music, inserting missing sound effects, and replacing the half Road to Tomorrow and half Future Colors with a full version of Road to Tomorrow during the credits, and some other things.

Edit: Gah, looks like I forgot to disable the ability to download the track. Here it is again, for streaming only:

[YYugi]

I didn't watch Yugi's entire turn, so I missed when he placed the two cards he had left in hand.

But that last one card that Yuusei draw at the end didn't matter since we just see him drawing it and then the duel ends.

Great... I like it the soundtracks.. I will see the movie with this soundtrack...

[blue knight wm]

Managed to watch the movie the other week when my room mate down loaded it. It was pretty awesome, but wow... Judai is so a Duel Hobo. Does he never leave that silly red jacket behind? Even after he graduated? XD I must say though Judai's turn was the only turn that impressed me of the heroes. The last turn was impressive, but Star Dust coming back for Yusei was... Very much a misplay, that only works because technically SD was originally Yusei's... And him even having that SD Miracle card set all those turns... Didn't really make sense since I doubt he was expecting to get SD back... But oh well...
A decent movie, a great homage to DM and GX. Too bad Paradox didn't get much more involvement in the series... And I'm still trying to figure where it was in Yugi's time... Cause he was a LOT taller then I remember him being. I'm glad they didn't waste a card in his hand at the Gods... That would be very sad and annoying.

[MAX_COLA_POWER]

You kinda wonder though, if this movie was made after Team Ragnarok and before Team New World, if Paradox would've stolen the Legendary Demons and the Polar Star Gods, HOLY MOLY ON A ROLIE POLIE BATMAN!, would that be epic-v-, all them gods together. Odin, Thor, Loki, Uria, Hamon, and Raviel vs. Obelisk, Osiris, Ra, Shooting Quasar, Divine Neos, and Yubel level 12. The circle in Sin World would literally mean the universe exploding from the awesomeness.

[Makoeyes987]

They'd never be able to even summon them. That'd take too many damn turns, and by the time one of them got one out, it'd be over anyways.

O.O Let's be glad that Paradox wasn't smart enough to steal any 'God' level cards from anyone. The biggest thing he stole was Cyber End and Rainbow. That would make one very painful duel for them to have to deal with.

[Lung]

Well again, it would have taken forever to summon them. Paradox was better off not having them, and just using what he had at that time.

I still can't help but facepalm at how he managed to summon a 4000 atk point monster right off the bat though and not have anything happen such as losing Life Points or anything. Then again, there's a few similar things that irk me about duels in general, hahaha.

Let's be glad he didn't have any virus cards. Eradicator+Sin Cyber End=pain in the ass.

Mako: If they managed to get away to use Stardust's Victim Sanctuary effect completely without him being synchro summoned properly, hell, reviving him with Sin Paradox period, then I believe the anim� team can make anything happen. They made Aki sexier with Kagami, think about that.

[Arynis]

*goes crosseyed after catching up with all the posts*

Wow, you guys are on a roll. You have been all pretty active. XD But hey, the movie's out and of course people would be on a roll. I'm happy to see activity, anyhow.

Anyway, I'm asking if the first post of the thread needs some organization and clean up. I'd guess the release dates would need to be updated, at the very least. Any suggestions, guys? Since I'm technically braindead (for most part) as far as fandom and forum knowledge goes. I see Starry has updated my posts in my absence, so thanks for that. ^^

Regarding the movie itself, I only watched the raw, but I haven't gotten around with watching it subtitled. I'll write down a review sometime later. Though, Paradox is an awesome Large Ham.

And GoldenUmi, I'll join everyone else in the euphoric joyful tingly feelings and say that your edits are amazing. I only watched the one with the DM Passionate Duelists so far, but it's perfect. I'll watch the other ones later as well. Are you planning to make a thread for them, or would you like them to be featured in the main post? Because I would totally feature them in the main post.

As for Pegasus having the Millennium Eye, I see Starry quoted my email on the matter, but that was more of a knee-jerk rant, so here's my proper, detailed explanation on it. Because I'd like to nip the issue in the bud before people start spreading misconceptions again.

Basically, the movie's DM period is post-Duelist Kingdom for certain, due to the Millennium Puzzle necklace. Furthermore, it is also post-Battle City, because Pegasus did not make appearances until the Doma arc and Pyramid of Light, which is also post-Battle City. (Pyramid of Light also had a shot on the screens of Yugi standing in the sky with the three Gods, which I believe was from Doma, but Doma wasn't mentioned in the novel.)

Now, in the manga, we know Bakura left Pegasus with a Millennium Eye replica. It could be seen as a mocking gesture, leaving Pegasus to a fake to use while he darts off with the real deal. However, Takahashi stated that Bakura did assassinate Pegasus, and we know good ol' Pegsy kicked it in the end, so not that it mattered much, except for a last minute rub-salt-in-wounds for the guy. The entire confrontation makes the previous Millennium Eye soup much more harsher, as well.

But that's aside the point. In the anime, Bakura didn't ask for the replica in Episode 028, nor he had it at all. He merely took Pegasus' Eye in Episode 040, leaving him without the Eye, without the replica.

Based on this, it would be believed that Pegasus has a gaping, open eye socket left. No, he doesn't regain his real eye or anything, damnit.

In Pegasus' post-Duelist Kingdom appearances, the place where his Eye used to be are all shaded out, but it was left ambiguous what was in there. In some of the Doma episodes, it somewhat seems like his eye socket is empty indeed. I think the flashback to the Pegasus/Mai duel had a shot where this could be seen well. I think it also shows when Mirror Knight Pegasus speaks to Yugi. However, in the original series itself, this is never questioned.

Enter Pyramid of Light. In the movie itself, Pegasus lifts up his hair to show himself to Kaiba, that chasing power is indeed a dangerous practice. Kaiba is obviously grossed out, but we are not shown Pegasus' revealed face. Given his expression, however, it would be obvious the image is not pretty. The POL novel elaborates on this, where Pegasus notes that he wishes to punish himself for what he did, and thus he will not fix up his unsightly scar.

“Guh…” Kaiba took a gasp. The gaping opening in his eye socket was an unsightly reminder of where one of the Millennium Items, the Millennium Eye, had once fit into.
“I first went in hunt for the Millennium Items with desires of meeting my lost lover. It was an act of folly brought on by my innocence which was shameful even to me. Before long, controlled by the Millennium Eye, I sought dark powers. It was no doubt on part of my feeble spirit. Therefore, to serve as a lesson to myself, I won’t put in an artificial eye or hide this unsightly scar.” Pegasus smiled self-mockingly.

In other words, the novel at the very least, fully confirms that Pegasus does have a gaping eye socket.

Then we have Reshef of Destruction, with Pegasus, or rather, Taiyou Tenma/Sol Chevalsky, wearing a golden eyepatch. Which again implies there's nothing there. Granted, he also changed his hairstyle to a ponytail, so the eyepatch may have been necessary anyway.

Now, fast forward to GX. Pegasus' eye socket comes up in Episode 085, with Pegasus speaking a line similar to what he said in POL.

You must have a heart befitting enough to wield power.
Power lacking heart will only bring about tragedy.

With too great a power comes too great a tragedy.
You will have to keep living, harboring those regrets for as long as you live.
And I wouldn't want to have one of my precious employees walk towards the same fate that I have.

Pegasus is seen lifting up his hair similarly like he did in POL, with Frantz appearing as shocked as he does so. This again implies that Pegasus still has a gaping eye socket, or at least a scar that looks plain ugly.

And now, we go back to Bonds Beyond Time, and... Pegasus has the Millennium Eye? What.

I want to like the interpretation of Pegasus not wanting to scare the children, showing that he truly does adore the kids. I really want to. But... it doesn't add up.

Given Kaiba's and Frantz's reaction, it's not just the children who are disgusted shitless of the sight. If his intent is not to scare anyone, then why leave his scar out in the open to begin with? He does it for self punishment as far as the novel goes, but the novel and GX both show he's using his scar to teach people a lesson. We don't really see him covering up his eye socket any other time (except in ROD).

Or let me put it differently, then. Why the Millennium Eye? Why not use an eyepatch like he did in ROD? Given that Sakiyomi Jan BANG!'s cast are dressed like pirates, an eyepatch would have been hilariously fitting an appropriate for such a situation. It's much simpler than pulling out and putting in a replica into your eye socket. Eww. And if he really wanted to cover up his eye socket somehow, then why not an artificial eye instead?

On the other hand, Pegasus keeping the Millennium Eye does have some interesting potential for Fridge Horror. In Pyramid of Light, Kaiba states that Pegasus was basically stuck in the past, while he himself aimed for the future. Pegasus keeping the Eye in would be an interesting way showing he never really moved on deep inside.

From a meta view, Pyramid of Light, both the movie (co-writing with Hikokubo) and the novel were written by Junki Takegami, GX's Society of Light Arc (which contains Episode 085) had him as the Series Layout man, and Reshef of Destruction credits him for the scenario. That would certainly explain the consistency with Pegasus' lines in GX and POL.

On the other hand, Doma had Shin Yoshida as the Series Layout man, and he was the screenwriter for the movie. Ergo, different writers, differently handing the situation.

And lastly, I figured I'd take a quick check between the versions since there is evidence that the Japanese DVD version was fixed up at places. Now, I didn't check the French dub that was being linked around, but I had a gif I made from Darren Dunstan's interview, which shows Pegasus coming out of the helicopter. It's this one:



We could presume this was the initial version that was handed to 4kids. Now for the comparison with the Japanese DVD; I took an identical frame out from the gif and compared the colors with the eyedrop tool.



Now, the dub image doesn't look that impressive, but that is due to being saved as a gif / resized. Not to mention the footage itself from the interview wasn't a high resolution one to begin with. That's why I went for the eyedrop tool.

Now, in the anime, Pegasus' eye (socket) was either blacked out, or there was nothing drawn in its place, but that could be chalked up to the animators being lazy or not caring. Examples:



So yeah. I think we can say that's the Eye in the movie.

Based on the overall evidence, Pegasus having the Eye in the movie could be due to:

A) A slip-up by the animators
B) Difference in the writers' interpretation/idea of the character
C) He really was covering up for the kids
D) He couldn't move on in the end (although this doesn't match up with POL/GX)
E) Something else
F) ???
G) Profit!

And that's the end of my explanation. I hope that clears it up.

[Lung]

...I somehow managed to read all of that in one go.

To be honest, I think it's a combination of several things; laziness, slip ups, different interpretation, etc. Though it's one of those things I don't particularly care about, since I never found mistakes like that bothersome. -Shrugs- I'm too laid back, hahaha.

[Arynis]

Hahah. Sorry, I have a tendency to dish out long analysis posts.

It could be a combination of those, yeah. We don't really know in the end what's the cause for Pegasus' Eye suddenly appearing. There's nothing wrong with being laid-back, though. I'm just quite vocal when it comes to Pegasus and issues related to him. XD And well, people were wondering about it, so I figured I'd step up and crack down on the question.

[GoldenUmi]

Arynis, your walls of text have been missing here for some time. So here goes.

Anyway, I'm asking if the first post of the thread needs some organization and clean up. I'd guess the release dates would need to be updated, at the very least. Any suggestions, guys? Since I'm technically braindead (for most part) as far as fandom and forum knowledge goes. I see Starry has updated my posts in my absence, so thanks for that. ^^

I'm not sure what has been placed there, but I wanted to make sure the subbed version I put up goes up with credit to both Horoko and myself.

Regarding the movie itself, I only watched the raw, but I haven't gotten around with watching it subtitled. I'll write down a review sometime later. Though, Paradox is an awesome Large Ham.

A large ham with nice facial expressions.

And GoldenUmi, I'll join everyone else in the euphoric joyful tingly feelings and say that your edits are amazing. I only watched the one with the DM Passionate Duelists so far, but it's perfect. I'll watch the other ones later as well. Are you planning to make a thread for them, or would you like them to be featured in the main post? Because I would totally feature them in the main post.

Thanks. These are just samples. I am working with Lance slowly on this and we will be making a few different versions with different tracks. These samples are to test if BGMS work or not.

Do you think it would need a separate thread? I'm all for it. I'm also fine keeping ti here.

As for Pegasus having the Millennium Eye...

Quite the analysis. I honestly believe Pegasus would treat kids different than adults. Kids have seen him with the eye for a long time, so it makes sense to me that he would not want them questioning a different appearance. You can argue it is inconsistent I guess, but it works for me.

[Arynis]

Arynis, your walls of text have been missing here for some time. So here goes.

Well, I'll make sure to dish out more of them in the upcoming months and more!

I'm not sure what has been placed there, but I wanted to make sure the subbed version I put up goes up with credit to both Horoko and myself.

From what I have seen, Starry did add some of the scripts that have been posted. I'll take a look at it later and give proper credit, then.

That too. XD And amazing laughs, too.

Oh, I see. I'm looking forward to your progresses then. ^^

And no, this thread is fine for it. I can give it a special place in the OP if you wish. That's what I meant with wanting to feature it. But it's up to you if you want it to keep in another thread or here. Technically, 'tis still on-topic. :]

Quite the analysis. I honestly believe Pegasus would treat kids different than adults. Kids have seen him with the eye for a long time, so it makes sense to me that he would not want them questioning a different appearance. You can argue it is inconsistent I guess, but it works for me.

Thanks! And yeah, Pegasus would view adults and kids differently, since he's sort of childish himself. And he's the creator of Duel Monsters after all, creating a game for, well, children.

That... makes sense, actually. I didn't think of that. While Pegasus doesn't always flaunt around his Eye, people could take note of it. I know Anzu and the others noticed it in Episode 028 of DM, but Pegasus had it more out in the open in that specific scene, so it may not count. There's also to consider that Pegasus doesn't seem to mind talking about his Eye, like when he showed it to Yugi for the first time. That could have been due to Yugi being another wielder of a Millennium Item, though.

But yeah, Pegasus wanting to keep his appearance consistent around people would work, since that's how he was always seen, even if he didn't openly show it to everyone. There's the issue with POL and GX still, but oh well.

[GoldenUmi]

What I meant is for the kids, not the adults. I doubt he would care if adults noticed, but I don't think he would want kids to ask about his eye. I can understand him showing the eye to people to teach them a lesson, but would he really want kids to be scared of him? That would no doubt have an effect on his sales, I would think.

I do think they could have done a better job making this more clear, though.

[Arynis]

Yeah, that would make sense. I could see him playing his way out of it if a kid asked him, but I agree he wouldn't want to horrify kids with some ancient artifact of doom.

As for the sales, this is the man who advertises booster packs while humiliating arrogant American champions. I don't think he has any worries on that front, as long as nothing ruins the game's reputation. (Paradox killing him and destroying Domino City with Duel Monsters.)

I agree on that. It made me do a double-take when I first noticed it.

[Lung]

Here's a theory:

He simply painted the Millennium eye over his scar. :>

It is amazing that Pegs seems to love children and such so much... Even though he's technically a one eyed lunatic whom spent most of his life being controlled by an evil eye charm. I'd almost expect him to wear some kinda silly fancy eye patch to go with his flamboyant style. Which apparently he doesn't do claiming to want to 'remind himself' of his past evils. *Rolls his eyes* Yes, as well as scare any naughty children (Such as Kaiba ) whom look too much into things.

Oye, whats wrong having one eye lol. I love to scare kids with that.

Remind me to keep small children away from you. As they should stay away from Pegs.

[Heather]

Oye, whats wrong having one eye lol. I love to scare kids with that.

If you ever make the decision to get a glass eye like you were pondering, you should just go for a Millennium Eye replica and go the whole hog

Did you ever make your decision on that by the way?

[Nike]

The U.K. DVD version should be released soon. I can't wait!

[Lung]

...I am very confused.

When Junk Gardna was first destroyed, how did the damage count? I'm quite positive it was summoned in defense mode. Did one of the monsters have an ability that made the damage count, or did Junk Gardna's effect force it to switch to attack mode?

Or is it, you know, plot no jutsu?

Ah, piercing. I actually forgot about that. Thanks for answering.

[GymLeaderLance99]

Figured I'd post an update on that music project here so everyone sees it.

Well, I've finished up looking over the tracks and getting out as much of the original music as I could. There's a few spots where it bursts in for a second or two, but it's low enough in volume that the new BGM should be able to obscure it. But since I won't be looking at the Music/SFX track (since there's too much music to be able to keep the SFX there and all), I'll be looking at it in Movie Maker and adding some SFX to help even things out, and I'll mix that with the finished music-removed track. Once that's done, I'll encode the video with that new mixed track to work on looping/etc, and I'll send it to GU for him to get some more samples out and stuff, too (I'll also dish out a few samples so you guys can hear some looping examples). Once it's done (around Friday/the weekend), GU and I'll start mulling the tracks over for the "community" version with all the suggestions, and then we'll probably plan out some different versions.

[GoldenUmi]

Ah yes, been ignoring this project. Well, good to hear you're making progress on it, Lance. I have a busy week coming up, but I should find some time to work on this, as I met my goal for my fanfic for the month.

[Lia]

@GLL99 - Extremely glad that there's a progress on that project. And pretty eager to see/hear the examples when they're available, since GU's first examples got me hooked enough about this.

[Ryusaki]

Good work team. I look forward to watching the remix -- my long wait is almost over now, the UK subbed Blu-Ray comes out in under a week. This is going to be sweet.

[Makoeyes987]

Horray! I was getting worried!!!

[GymLeaderLance99]

Ah yes, been ignoring this project. Well, good to hear you're making progress on it, Lance. I have a busy week coming up, but I should find some time to work on this, as I met my goal for my fanfic for the month.

Cool. I paused work on it myself for a bit since I wanted to spend some time working on/looking over this Pokemon GSC remake I'm slowly still doing, along with GX and all, lol. (I should get around to reading some of these series-remake fics at some point; the only one I've really read is Detective's Jack one, lol. [Which is awesomely done, too.])

Hmm...I'm wondering if there'd be a chance that the UK DVD would have things mixed a bit better than the Japanese DVD was, audio-wise. If it ends up having the dialogue/SFX with no music like it should (or more like the DBZ:Kai DVDs, judging from those no-BGM clips on YT), it could save a lot of work and make things sound better. If you're still planning to get that DVD, GU, think you could look into it at some point? (If anyone else is, feel free to if you can.) We'll probably stick with what I've done so far for now, but it probably wouldn't hurt to check and see if the channels are any better there.

Also, I'm thinking we might as well leave in that evil-sounding BGM in when Neos disappears, since it gets too loud to be able to really get it out of the tracks (it's one of the ones I mentioned that bursts in a bit). Plus, at least that part'll sound like it should, with all the rumbling and stuff.

[GoldenUmi]

I suggest you check them over. All of them if you can, but I am going to shamelessly advertise mine and Drago's since we've talked and worked together so much regarding our works. Of course they are still separate works on our own, but we've improved on each other's ideas.

The reason I urge you to check them out is because neither of us have even completed one chapter yet. But you may find the planning we've done to catch your interest.

I'm only getting the blu-ray, not the DVD, so I won't be able to work with blu-rays. If someone happens to post it on Asian DVD Club, I will download the DVD and let you know. But for now, plan to use what we have.

That BGM is so short anyway. I see no reason to try and change it if it's going to be a hassle.

Yeah, I've peeked at some of the planning, but I haven't had time to really look it over. The Doma/KCGP manga-timeline rewrite does sound interesting, and so does the Noah arc one (but I didn't play much of Falsebound Kingdom, so most of that'll probably go over my head, lol).

Ah, gotcha. Well, if someone does eventually put it up and it's better-mixed, I probably wouldn't mind looking things over again later on if I'm able to.

And yep, that's my reasoning for it. It's not too much of a hassle, it's just the little bursting-in at the end, along with all the rumbling that would get a bit messed up, that made me think about keeping it. I was thinking of putting GX's "Turn End" there just to try it (while testing it, it didn't sound that bad), but either way, that one fits well enough. The only downside is, I'll have to go back and add those few seconds back to the tracks as they were and mix them again. It definitely won't be that hard, but I should've thought about keeping it earlier. XD;

The question is will the UK DVD/Blu-Ray Discs really be released or be stopped from releasing because of the lawsuit?

[GymLeaderLance99]

The question is will the UK DVD/Blu-Ray Discs really be released or be stopped from releasing because of the lawsuit?

There hasn't been any word from MangaUK about their release being stopped, IIRC. So, it's probably safe to assume it's still on.

Well, I've sent GU the 99%-no-BGM movie, so expect some more samples from both of us soon. I'll have one or two ready by tonight to test out some ideas. I'll also put up a few clips from the movie in the Download Forum sometime after for whoever wants to mess around with 'em.

1) Terror - GX Sound Duel 2, Track 35
2) Mystery - 5D's Sound Duel 3, Disc 1, Track 9
3) A Serious SOS - 5D's Sound Duel 3, Disc 1, Track 16

Probably should've made the beginning of "Terror" a bit louder... Anyway, like I said before, you'll hear a quick second or two of the original BGM in some spots, so don't mind that too much, lol (also, some of the added SFX might sound a bit off during the Stardust tuning [I blame Movie Maker]). Also, some of the subs (which are GU's and Horoko's, just revised a bit by me) might lag, since I had to add a negative delay to the audio in Virtualdub to synch it up a bit, and I only did a quick retime in Aegisub. Whenever the versions are ready to get released, I'll retime the script to fit the moved audio.

Enjoy, guys. If I'm not too busy this weekend, I'll get the next sample done by tomorrow or Sunday.

Oh wow, that was awesome, I love the choice for "Terror" there. I agree, making it louder would've been best. Did I recommend that? LOL I really love that choice XD

The other choices for the moments worked too, I liked the use of Mystery going into the duel and stuff.

"A Serious SOS" was good too, but it didn't really convey the full series of urgency or epicness that was Paradox's theft of Stardust Dragon right then and there. It seemed rather....like just one of those everyday sort of conflict situations.

I think volume probably needs to be raised on all of these tracks, cause it sounds a bit too low.

Everything else though looks awesome! ^^

There's a link here to a review of the UK DVD confirming once and for all, for all those with so little faith, that the DVD comes with the Japanese subbed movie. I suppose there is still a chance that the subbed movie could be some kind of hybrid with the dub's music and the Japanese voice acting, but only because a decade of not receiving official English releases has made me so unreasonably suspicious.

Now the choice between GU's "Mystery of the Millennium Kingdom" and now GLL's "Terror" got difficult for me. May be Terror's rumble, slower rhythm, darker atmosphere and mysteriousness fit a little bit better as background music for the very first scene with Judai and Paradox.

How about mixing the Japanese audio with dub music and dub sounds?
